I'm trying to understand weaving copyright. Can I sell pieces I wove based on instructions from Handwoven? How do I know a piece is truly "original?"
I recently bought an old counterbalance loom. I thought one of the advantages of the counterbalance design was that they tend to give a larger shed, but I'm weaving my first project on it, and the shed seems fairly small.
I weave with a jack-type loom (rising shed). I have never found a good description of the difference between counterbalance looms, countermarch looms and a sinking-shed lack loom (Louet's David loom is described as a "sinking shed jack loom").
I once answered the question of how long it took me to weave this scarf without considering all of the points listed here.
I say I love weaving, but there are a few things about it I’m not crazy about.
Here at the Weavers' School, we put on warps (mostly on Baby Wolfs) that are about 30 yd long. We could probably fit close to 40 yd warp length on these looms.
Rainbows are wonderful. Dorothy Gale, Kermit the Frog, and Israel “Iz” Kamakawiwo‘ole, have all sang about these magical natural phenomena. When I was a child, seeing rainbows was a rare, wonderful experience. My friends and I would trek out as far
In his video, Tom teaches you everything you need to get started, from the basics of project planning and warping through finishing your cloth, and his friendly teaching style makes it clear and simple.
Weavers love name drafts. They’re fun ways we can hide special little messages in our weaving and create works of cloth with extra layers of meaning.
